Thanksgiving also brought us a new little friend. Jack arrived at our house. Don't tell anyone, but Jack reports to Santa. That's how Santa knows if Lily has been good or bad. Every night Jack flies to the North Pole to give Santa the report and then returns to our house to keep an eye on Lily. She wakes up every morning, anxious to find him. So far he's hidden in the kitchen window, on top of the refrigerator, in the living room curtains, in the Christmas tree, and when I left this morning, he was sitting at the computer desk.

Home improvement
This past weekend, the Stone family did a little home improvement. We had not done anything to our laundry room since we moved in. As you can see it was very pink and had a beautiful pig border. The way the shelves were put up didn't make for very efficient storage. We were very frugal with our new design. We found some mistinted paint at Lowe's for $5.00 a gallon. It turned out much brighter than we expected, but still all right for the laundry room. I got 6 rolls of shelf liner for $1/roll at Big Lots. I got some Command hooks for about $4. The big splurge was the shelves above the washing machine which were about $12 at Wal~mart. We're pretty happy with the results.
The pantry. We could still use a little more room there. Maybe I need to stop buying frosting.

Hockey Day 2008
Abby Cadabby!
Lily dressed up as Abby Cadabby from Sesame Street for Halloween. She wasn't into trick-or-treating, but Sonny insisted on taking her anyway. She rang one door bell, but when the people talked to her, she ran away. Oh well. Gramu made sure she had PLENTY of treats. (So did Miss Susan when we got to Judson for Hockey Day that night. )
